pigs

Alright! Here's the second annual unofficial pigture contest! This time there's a theme... Piggy Friends! Enter your cutest photo of your pigs cuddling, playing or snoozing together (or anything else together XD ) or maybe you are your piggies best friend, selfies always welcome ;) other...

For fun, I've decided to hold a little picture contest for your pigs! All you have to do is enter your best pigture and tell me a bit about your pig! I will judge the best one on January 5th, and the winner will get a sketch of their winning pig (I'm a bit of an artist :D) Here is an example...

I love my guinea pigs!

I bought this lovely house for my piggies: and they don't use it! (the ramp is a bit slippy - bad mummy didn't cover it!) They sleep under it and only go in when put food in there. And they chew the legs. They are growing and they are finding it a squeeze to fit under comfortably and the legs...

Introduced Ronan (4 week old texel) to my other two tonight and it went really well! I have Caspar, a 5 week old teddy and Rupert, a 4 year old part sheltie. Poor Rupert with all these babies! He popcorned when he first saw them both so I think he's happy for the company! I know I might get...

These are from floor time this past weekend. The light isn't great but hopefully you can see them scampering around (and jumping the chair legs) well enough! There were three but one has music in the back ground that was blocked :(

My three girls are somewhere around their first birthday (basically anytime in September!) BB is currently the heaviest (!) at 850g, Chewie is 830 and Rey is 780g. Here's a *few* pictures. I have got a video of them leaping the chair legs, but I haven't got around to uploading it to YouTube!

Hi, I've had my guinea pig for just over a month now and he is quite bonded to me recently he has started calling out if I'm out of my room for an hour or two working on the computer. My parents have also noticed this behaviour and agree he needs a friend, however he is quite young and I keep...

My three little pigs out for floor time this morning. I've been lying down with them for a week or so trying to get them used to me being on their level with my (rather old) camera. Chewie will nibble my nose and Rey will put her paws on my hands/feet etc. BB is a bit more cautious but she is...

Rey out and about during floor time. A second after this picture, Chewie jumped I to the crate and Rey shut the door behind her!

I had the day off work today and as Rey still needs 3x eye drops each day, I decided to keep the girls inside. I used their outdoor run to create a barrier keeping them in the dining room and let them run around for about 40 mins including lunch :) I had to use some tunnels and their indoor...

I hope this works! This was their first proper floor time as a trio. They have all had un-sanctioned floor time individually before. OH is worried about them peeing on the carpet. We were creating a human barrier between the safe dining room and the wires-everywhere living room and computer...

Chewie, BB and even little Rey are getting bolder everyday. I only wish I could take in-focus pictures!
